Phoenix Technologies (known as a vendor for PC-BIOSs) presents at CES FirstView Connect 3.2: Phoenix FirstView Connect 3.2 is a powerful, complete software platform that enables digital device OEMs to introduce robust, interactive Internet functionality- as a primary or secondary function- into their consumer electronics devices quickly and affordably. This is Linux-based and among the features they support is: built-in web browser and Email, HTML 4.0, CSS 2.0, DOM 2.0, Javascript 1.4, Personal Java 3.1, Macromedia Flash 5.0, SSL, Cookies, SMTP, POP3, IMAP4. Wow, does that mean that soon I can surf the Internet and read Email on my microwave? At least it clearly shows that cross-browser support is more important than ever. Not that I really think someone browses xml.apache.org with a microwave :-) 4:30:16 PM
